摘要：
An effective location algorithm, which considers non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation, is presented. By using a new variable to replace the square term, the problem becomes a mathematical programming problem, and then the NLOS propagation's effect can be evaluated. Compared with other methods, the proposed algorithm has high accuracy.
